TRADOC... Where tomorrow's victories begin
Purpose
Describe the resourcing strategy
for for the CTCs and CTC
OPFORs to adequately
replicate the variables and
capabilities inherent in the
contemporary operational
environment.

Background
• Ongoing OPFOR Modernization effort
• White Paper defined variables and
associated capabilities to replicate
contemporary operational environment
• CTC FAA process initially linked both
efforts to funding
• OPFOR Directorate refined capabilities
and initial funding estimates

• Ongoing OPFOR Modernization has not allowed OPFOR
to keep pace
• All OPFOR programs subject to being billpayers
• Contemporary OE exacerbates shortfalls
• 21 identified capabilities include materiel (RDA),
associated OMA tail, and OMA costs; only 3 (OSV,
OSTV-T, ASET IV) funded
Program addresses all BOS
v oi nn nrniff
.. Line: We have an approximate one-year
alidate requirements and compete for fund
TRADOC... Where tomorrow's victories begin

• Consider both projected threat
timelines and status of ongoing
modernization
• Funding estimates based upon a
variety of factors
- Existing program costs
- Information provided from CTCs and
other agencies
